2nd amendment
-
If a full out civil war began with the people versus the government, not everybody in the government or military would choose the same side. If that was the case, the government would lose the support of the entire population if they committed mass genocide with military grade weapons.
And unless shit goes horribly wrong and our government ceases to exist or we have a large nuclear explosion over the states resulting in a massive EMP, no other country is in a position to invade us. We'd see them coming hundreds of miles away.
Well then good thing we have guns. Cuz the revolution and stuff

I carry a gun because there's a bunch of ruthless assholes out there and you never know when you need to defend yourselves. A deadly encounter lasts seconds, not minutes - can't have somebody else come to my rescue.
Especially when I'm wearing my Trump shirt, never know when one of those leftist whack jobs will try to attack you for your political position.

I had that question as well:
How are our gun owners a "well regulated militia"? Shouldn't we require some kind of training? Some kind of regulation, to make them a functioning militia?
Also, how can Billy bob with his rifle defend us from a developed nation attacking? What do they do against jets and tanks? Shouldn't we allow more heavy duty arms for proper defense?
I don't know. Ask the viet cong, chechans, afghans or Iraqi insurgents. This point is stupid as fuck every time I hear it.

I wouldn't say those are one to one comparisons.
Do our people have access to the same fire power? Same environment? Same era?
If the 2nd amendment is for defense, why limit our ability to defend ourselves? If a rabid state side group does appear, as Ed said, why be limited in our fire power?

They'd just be listening to your boy Trump. He's had no problem advocating for similar violence before.

Oh what Trump suggested his supporters should retaliate against unruly rioters so that makes the violent riots OK?They'd just be listening to your boy Trump. He's had no problem advocating for similar violence before.
How many Trump supporters do you see causing problems? A black marine Trump supporter in Arizona attacking a protester dressed in a KKK hood who was yelling racist stuff?

The Bill of Rights uses the term person for an individual. It also uses the term people which was recognized to mean the state.

Are you sure you want to post on this board?
"We the People"... means the ....state?
eh...NO. WRONG.

Fwiw I'm not a conservative.
I'm an American...who supports letting people stick it up the butt...who supports people's rights to own guns...who believes the poor should have social programs including health care to get them on their feet (not as permanent solution)...who believes we shouldn't keep risking American lives for worthless middle east wars that do nothing except empower the people who hate us...that believes the TPP is an even worse version of NAFTA, which the Clinton's said "my mistake, sorry" ...who believes you shouldn't victim shame rape victims.
If you vote Clinton you don't stand for any of those things
Looking forward to Trump exposing Crooked Hillary in his speech tomorrow.

The viscosity of lotion breaks down fairly quickly requiring many more applications than say....canola oil or something.

BREAKING!! Dumb hippy congress-members stage lame SIT-IN to take away your gun rights!!
While i in principal agree with the general direction of that link, its precisely that tone which will prevent me from "ever" joining the NRA. Send in the hippy skull cracking cops? Really? Cause those are the same cops that will come for your guns or ur right to protest anything if the govt one day decides martial law is in order. I simply eill not associate myself even mildly with people who speak like that. Unfortunately the nra is full of these kinds of bufoons

The buffoons are doing a ridiculous sit in. They had a vote and lost. It's called democracy. If I had my way anyone wanting to hold public office would have to have a decent knowledge of our constitution. This looks like something that would happen in a banana republic or a third world country.
We had a vote on these issues. Those who voted against the gun control measures will have to face their own constituents and answer for how they voted. That is how it works, not playing and acting a fool with a disruptive sit down when a vote doesn't go your way.
I think these legislators deserve any scorn they get.

Not that kind of scorn.

Those are the kind of monkeys that will ruin gun rigjts for everyone, mark it
